691. Charlie Poem by Jaden Knight

I'd love to set your house ablaze
and watch the fire rise up in fury 
though the building stands intact and unharmed
you would not live there anymore 

The flames would consume your belongings
burning them away into nothing 
cleansing the rooms of your rubbish 
leaving only dust to be hoovered up

As you are forced out by smoke of your own making 
and have to move to another place 
the healing could finally start here
slowly undoing the damage you caused
until it is little more than a memory 

I'd love to set your house ablaze
and watch the fire rise up in fury 
even though the building would remain unharmed 
you could never live there anymore
